    Kawaida: Southie has always been a racist neighborhood. You need to read the history of Boston of the 1970s to get started on this subject and then read the history of the immigrants’ arrival in Boston. Each succeeding nationality hated the next one because of economics and fear of differences. The Irish are not the only group who hate. You will find out more as you read and live your life. Thanks for the question, though. It is thought-provoking and ought to bring more than a few responses. I grew up in the Dorchester, Fields Corner area, and during the ’50s we were as bad as Southie. I left Boston behind for many years because I hated all the hate that was evident there. Things are better today, I believe, but not much in some ways. George
